[PATCHv3 1/9] sched: Add static_key for asymmetric cpu capacity optimizations

From: Morten Rasmussen
Date: Wed Jun 20 2018 - 05:10:08 EST


The existing asymmetric cpu capacity code should cause minimal overhead
for others. Putting it behind a static_key, it has been done for SMT
optimizations, would make it easier to extend and improve without
causing harm to others moving forward.
